Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 44: Visiting the Dragon Cave

Uchiha Douhuan returned home, washed up briefly, and went back to his bedroom. He bit his finger and made a summoning seal.

The smoke dissipated and a small white snake appeared in front of Uchiha Douhuan.

"Please inform Longchi Cave that Uchiha Douhuan is here to visit." Uchiha Douhuan said after stretching out his hand to tease the little white snake.

The little white snake disappeared in an instant. Not long after, Uchiha Douhuan sensed the fluctuations of the reverse summoning space-time ninjutsu coming from his side. Uchiha Douhuan relaxed his mind, and in a blink of an eye, he arrived at a strange place.

The scene that appeared in front of Uchiha Douhuan was very similar to the ancient town tourist attraction he had seen in his previous life. There were rows of ancient buildings, and a huge, antique building sign with the three words "Longdidong" hanging on it.

Orochimaru was standing under the building sign, and next to him was a woman wearing a shrine maiden's costume and a magatama necklace around her neck.

"Lord Dohuan." Orochimaru saluted Uchiha Dohuan respectfully, while the woman beside him looked at Uchiha Dohuan with interest.

After a moment, the woman spoke, "Uchiha Douhuan, welcome to Ryuchi Cave."

"Hello, what's your name?" Uchiha Douhuan asked with a smile.

"Tanxin Shenji." The woman beside Orochimaru chuckled, "The White Snake Immortal already knows your purpose. However, if you want to meet the White Snake Immortal, you still need to pass the test of the Ryuchi Cave."

"I understand." Uchiha Douhuan nodded and followed Tian Xin Shen Ji's footsteps.

The two walked towards the interior of the ancient city, but Orochimaru made a seal to cancel the summoning at this time.

"Won't he come with us?" Uchiha Douhuan asked curiously.

"Everyone has only one chance to take this road in their lifetime. Although Orochimaru is a partner of Ryuchi Cave, he failed once when he challenged this road and he is no longer qualified to enter." Tian Xinshen Ji explained as they walked.

"By the way, are you so sure of my purpose for coming here?" Uchiha Douhuan was also a little curious at this time. "I've heard that there is a toad sage in Myoboku Mountain who can predict the future. Could it be that the White Snake Sage has similar abilities?"

"Don't compare us with those stinky toads in Myoboku Mountain." Tian Xinshen Ji looked unhappy.

"I'm sorry for being rude." Uchiha Douhuan apologized with a smile.

"The White Snake Immortal doesn't have the abilities of the old toad from Myoboku Mountain." Tian Xin Shen Ji glanced at Uchiha Dou Huan before speaking, "But your purpose for coming to Longchi Cave is easy to guess."

"For thousands of years, people who came to Ryuchi Cave had two main purposes: one was to find a summoning beast companion, and the other was to cultivate Sage Mode," Tian Xin Shen Ji said. "You are different from people like Orochimaru who arrived at Ryuchi Cave before their strength was fully formed. Your fighting habits are already established. If you don't learn specific ninjutsu, most of the contracted snakes in Ryuchi Cave won't be able to join a battle of your level."

"So, your goal can only be the latter."

Uchiha Douhuan nodded without comment and continued to follow Tian Xin Shen Ji's footsteps.

"By the way, what is the test that Ryuchi Cave gives to those who want to practice Sage Mode? Is it something like character? If that's the case, then I don't think I can pass the test." Uchiha Douhuan said.

"Mr. Do Hwan, you're joking. Longdi Cave treats everyone who wants to cultivate Sage Mode equally." Tian Xin Shen Ji smiled, "All tests have only one purpose, which is to see if the participants can adapt to natural energy. As for character and willpower, which humans care about, Longdi Cave doesn't care."

"I understand. No wonder it is said that this place is a place where only lunatics who are obsessed with seeking power would come." Uchiha Douhuan said with a smile.

"I'll take it as a compliment from Mr. Douhuan," Tian Xinshenji said. "Besides, Mr. Douhuan would come here, so shouldn't he have been prepared?" "That's true." Uchiha Douhuan nodded. "So, when does the test begin?"

Tian Xin Shen Ji brought Uchiha Douhuan to a restaurant-like building in the city, clapped her hands, and soon several girls brought Uchiha Douhuan various delicious foods.

"Mr. Douhuan, before the test begins, please enjoy the hospitality of Longdi Cave." Tian Xinshen Ji said with a smile.

"Really?" Uchiha Douhuan sat down at the dining table and picked up the cutlery without thinking.

Seeing this, Tian Xinshen Ji also showed a special smile.

However, in the next second, Tian Xinshen Ji suddenly found that a long knife with a light blue metallic luster was placed on her neck, and Uchiha Douhuan on the dining table in front of her had disappeared at some point.

"What do you mean, Mr. Dou Huan?" Although a knife was held to her neck, Tian Xinshen Ji remained calm and asked.

Behind Tian Xinshenji, Uchiha Douhuan's Mangekyō Sharingan's lightning-shaped magatama slowly swirled. "The illusion is quite realistic, but since I awakened these eyes, everything I see is absolutely real."

"I see." Tian Xinshen Ji nodded, and everything around them began to change. The magnificently decorated restaurant and the ancient town outside disappeared and turned into a gloomy cave, and the many delicacies on the table just now turned into white bones.

Disappeared along with it was the figure of Tian Xinshen Ji.

When Tian Xin Shen Ji reappeared, her originally peaceful and elegant face had disappeared, replaced by a ferocious snake face, vicious eyes with vertical pupils, and sharp teeth and long tongue exposed when her mouth opened, which made Uchiha Dou Huan frown slightly.

The chakra around Tian Xin Shen Ji began to fluctuate. This chakra fluctuation was very special, completely different from anyone Uchiha Dou Huan had fought before.

"Is this the fairy chakra?" Uchiha Douhuan held his sword and took a fighting stance. The blue electric light around him began to gather and crackle.

Just then, a voice came from deep in the cave.

"Shen Ji, bring him here directly. In front of his pupil technique, the subsequent tests are meaningless."

"I understand, White Snake Immortal." Tian Xinshenji turned around and saluted towards the depths of the cave. Then her face returned to its previous appearance. She said to Uchiha Douhuan with an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, Mr. Douhuan, I was rude, but this is also part of the test."

"I understand." Uchiha Douhuan nodded, sheathed his lightning blade, and asked, "Is that the White Snake Immortal?"

"That's right, please follow me." Tian Xinshen Ji said.
